Ingredients
  

  • 4 large whole grain tortillas
  • 1 cup cooked brown rice
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 4 tablespoons hemp hearts
  • 1 half large onion chopped
  • 3-4 cups chopped veggies such as bell pepper broccoli, carrots and cucumber
  • 4-8 lettuce leaves
  • Cilantro Lime Sauce

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl combine rice, quinoa, and hemp hearts and stir to combine well. Add chopped onions and stir until combined.
  • Add 2 heaping tablespoons of cilantro lime sauce to the rice mixture and stir to combine.
  • To assemble wraps, spread a tablespoon of cilantro lime sauce down the centre of the tortilla leaving an couple of inches at either end. Spoon on a heaping half cup of the rice mixture over the sauce. Divide the chopped veggies amongst the 4 wraps, arranging them on top of the rice. Top with lettuce leaves.
  • Tuck in either side of the wrap and roll the wrap over the mixture to close! Wrap in parchment paper to keep the wrap tightly closed.

Notes

This is a great recipe for using up left over brown rice and quinoa. Allow more time to prepare the wraps if you are cooking the rice and quinoa and allow to cool a bit before assembling the wraps.
